The water level outside has stopped rising and will not affect his tree house at all. Although lightning will still strike from time to time, they are all absorbed by the lightning rod on the top of his tree house and will not cause any impact on his tree house.
The tornado was still spinning in the same place, throwing out some things from time to time, but they were too far away for Xu Xin to see clearly.
In fact, he could sit comfortably in the tree house now, wash a basin of fruit, play with Coco, study how to make the mutant beast meat more delicious, make a cup of tea, and wait comfortably until the rainy season ends.
This is actually the safest method. Most people in his situation would never choose to go out at this time and get close to the tornado that looks so terrifying. This sounds like seeking death.
If it was the Xu Xin who put immediate survival first, he probably would not have gone out.
But now Xu Xin has more things to consider than before.
The reward for the last return of dungeon exploration, +1 tree house level, played a very important role in this rainy season.
A tree house with one floor higher can not only attract lightning during thunderstorms, keeping the ignition point of lightning fire away from the tree house, allowing survivors to cut out a firebreak without injury, perfectly avoiding the invasion of forest fires. At the same time, after the heavy rain comes, it will not be completely submerged, so the owner has a place to stay.
In other words, the rewards obtained in an event are likely to affect the viability of the next event.
This event, called "Rainy Season", is the last event of the so-called "first phase". In this event, things that will not appear in the jungle will probably play a big role in the future.
As a person, you can't just look at the present, you have to look further ahead and think about the future.
Finally, Xu Xin convinced himself and decided to get closer to the huge tornado to take a look.
He put on purple-level scale armor, sat at the dining table that could increase the duration of food effects, ate all kinds of fruits, and stacked his status to the maximum.
Night vision ability, mental strength, physical strength, power, underwater breathing ability, positive emotional ability, Xu Xin ate all these fruits and felt that his body was stronger than the peak state, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually faded away.
"Coco, Silver King, Mimi, the three of you stay in the tree house. It's all water underneath and I can't take you out. Just wait for me at home." Xu Xin said to the three beasts who were still staring out the window.
"Ouch!" The Silver King responded. Mimi just looked back at him, then turned her head and stared at the tornado in the distance, as if it had also sensed something from the tornado.
But Xu Xin couldn't communicate with it, so it was useless even if it noticed something.
"嘤!" Coco pointed at the tornado in the distance while sitting on the windowsill and called out to Xu Xin again.
After so many times of cooperation, Xu Xin has basically understood the meaning of Coco's call. It means that there is no danger, there is treasure, and there is no need to be afraid.
… Such a big tornado, with so many dead animals and trees inside, Xu Xin couldn't believe that there was no danger. But this also made Xu Xin feel a little relieved, at least in Ke Ke's opinion, it didn't seem dangerous there.
And Coco’s foresight of danger has never been wrong so far.
Considering that he might be away for a long time this time, he left enough food for the three beasts to last for two days, then grabbed the roots of the tree house and swung down, hovering above the water.
The heavy rain instantly soaked Xu Xin like a drowned rat. He hung in the air, wiped the water off his face, and carefully looked at the newly appeared water area.
The raindrops hit the water, so Xu Xin couldn't see what was in the water. He could only vaguely see some fish swimming under the water. Fortunately, the color was normal, not the blood-red piranhas.
After checking the map, he found that there was no red dot near his tree house.
Xu Xin let go of the roots and jumped directly into the water.
When Xu Xin opened his eyes in the water, he saw a different world.
Small trees are densely distributed on the original ground, which is now the bottom of the water, like a jungle growing underwater. Some fish are swimming in this jungle, and they seem to be very interested in these trees that have never appeared underwater.
Xu Xin was very familiar with these fish, as they were all fish from the lake. The rain turned the entire jungle into an ocean, so these fish that originally lived in the lake swam into the jungle for the first time.
Xu Xin ignored them and swam towards the tornado.
After swimming about three or four hundred meters, Xu Xin was attracted by a special school of fish.
This is a group of colorful fish. They swim in groups among the tender branches, giving Xu Xin the illusion that he is diving in the clear sea and encountering a school of tropical fish by the coral reef.
"Where do all these strange fish come from?" He was a little confused.
These fish were definitely not from his lake; he had never seen these types of fish when he explored the lake before.
These fish looked very brightly colored. Xu Xin tried to get closer, but they did not dodge and even circled around him.
They are not afraid of the scales on Xu Xin's body!
You know, the anaconda scale armor on his body has the ability to deter aquatic animals.
Driven by curiosity, Xu Xin reached out and picked one up, looking at it.
This fish is only as long as his index finger, and its shape is similar to that of a small pomfret. It is a very delicate little fish.
They have very beautiful rainbow patterns on their bodies, much like tropical ornamental fish. The beautiful colors made Xu Xin want to keep them in a tree house.
This fish is so beautiful. The colorful patterns on its body look like they were painted by humans. It is magical and beautiful.
Colorful Scale Fish (Green): A beautiful ornamental fish with little meat and not very tasty. Raising it in a tree house can increase the decorativeness of the tree house.
The sudden introduction made Xu Xin stunned, and he didn't even pay attention to the content of the introduction.
When did living animals have attributes and descriptions? Isn't it only the materials that are decomposed after death that have attributes and levels
Only then did Xu Xin notice that the colorful fish surrounding him were all emitting a faint green light. Because they were so colorful, he did not notice it at first.
These living fish are actually resources, and green-level resources at that!
This situation probably occurs because this kind of fish is only useful when it is alive, and each one is a resource.
But... what is the degree of decoration mentioned in this introduction
A new concept. I'm afraid it will bring some benefits to the tree house or the survivors.
Is this what the rainstorms and hurricanes bring that wasn't there before
He gently released the fish in his hand. The fish did not struggle but returned to the school of fish very naturally, and then revolved around Xu Xin with the school of fish.
New resources, related to a new concept, these small fish must be brought on board.
Xu Xin roughly counted the number of fish, about 50. He made a wooden barrel on the spot, pointed the mouth of the barrel at the direction where the fish were turning, and naturally, all the fish swam into the barrel without hiding.
He quickly surfaced to prevent the fish from swimming away again.
"These small fish are also resources. They should be able to be put directly into the backpack, right?" Xu Xin thought so and tried to put the wooden barrel filled with water and small fish into the backpack.
The wooden barrel disappeared from his hand, and in the backpack, the wooden barrel, water, and fish each occupied a grid. Xu Xin frowned and took out the wooden barrel again. The colorful little fish were still swimming happily in the water.
feasible!
I didn't expect that I could obtain a new resource so easily just a few hundred meters away.
Putting away the wooden barrel and the small fish, Xu Xin dived into the water and continued swimming towards the direction of the tornado.
Originally there were mostly only small trees around, but as he swam and got closer to the tornado, more and more strange things appeared.
There were some floating corpses of wild animals on the water, but there were not many of them, only a few scattered around. This made Xu Xin wonder where all the wild animals that were originally scattered throughout the jungle had gone.
You know, before the rainy season came, the jungle was dotted with dense red dots, but now, there is not even a single red dot around, but there are only a few carcasses of wild animals.
Although he was a little skeptical, he still had to take the resources that were at his fingertips. He decomposed all the beasts floating on the water and obtained two blue-level animal skins. Unfortunately, there were no beneficial ingredients like bear paws.
Since the black bear, he has never produced blue-level wild beast ingredients again.
Xu Xin only brought blue-level resources and did not bring resources such as animal meat. These things were useless, took up space in the backpack and were very heavy, so they were a complete burden to carry with them.
Continuing to swim towards the tornado, soon, he was only three or four hundred meters away from the outer edge of the tornado.
When we reached this area, we suddenly saw strange rocks everywhere under the water.
A piece of azure crystal at the bottom of the water attracted his attention. He swam to the bottom of the water and reached out to pick up the crystal.
The entire crystal was the size of a fist and was crystal clear. He could even see the lines on his hands clearly through the crystal.
Blue Crystal (Green): A beautiful crystal that can be placed in a tree house to add decoration and can be used for carving.
It's the degree of decoration again.
What is the function of this decoration
